Review:Dark synthpop in the vein of Beta Evers, Marie Davidson or Sally Shapiro by French duo Digital Romance for the always reliable Bordello A Parigi. This follows up a tremendous album by the legendary Fred Ventura as Italoconnection last month. Comprised of Gael Herry aka Pierre De La Touche on production duties and the mysterious Marie De Berlin on vocals. "Forgotten Love" is reminiscent of the Bobby Orlando produced Hi-NRG sounds in the early '80s - in particular Roni Griffiths. Brooding yet sexy late night Italo business in convincingly nostalgic fashion heard next on "Drive". It's packed full of vintage synth arpeggios another one of De Berlin's powerful vocal performances. Finally the absolutely neon-lit pop of "Wetter Than Water" sounds like an unearthed sleeper hit from the '80s: that could well have been an anthem on a John Hughes film.
